Save the Date: Missouri Assistive Technology's Power Up 2024 will be held April 8-9 at the Holiday Inn Executive Center in Columbia, MO. If you have burning questions on assistive technology, access accommodations, using accommodations in the workplace or helping family caregivers know the tools to access and use assistive technology for their loved ones, this is the conference you need to attend!  We will have presenters who discuss information about what's available in assistive technology for seniors. How do you borrow equipment to try with an individual before purchasing it? What do to with equipment no longer needed? Last year, we exceeded our exhibitor attendance from companies that dicussed products about medication reminders, adaptive cooking, adapting to vision loss with assistive technology, memory and cognition, and much more.
